Borderless printing on epson 2100...please help!

Hello,
I've been trying to get borderless printing from aperture on my epson 2100. I've selected borderless printing in the Print Settings but it still won't allow me to move the slider down to 0. I've tried a bunch of different page sizes but basically I want borderless A4 and A3 prints and can't seem to manage it. Please help!
Thanks Lisa

Here's a possibility:

Distilling down what they come up with at the end, try defining a custom paper size with a margin of at least .01" on a side - then try the calibration option, and see if you can enter values that expand the image to fit the page to be borderless.
It does seem like a bug with printing though.

Difficulty Printing Borderless Prints with Epson C84

When I had an iMac G3 with OS 9.2 and used the Epson menu for printing, I had no difficulty printing 4x6 inch borderless prints (since that is one of the options on the Epson Menu). But now that I am forced to use the OS 10 printing menu, even when I identify the printer as an Epson C84, crop the photos to fit a 4x6 page and show "0" margins on all sides when selecting 4x6 as paper size, using either iPhoto or Photoshop Elements 3.0, the prints come out with a small white border on all four sides. The Apple Menu with Epson as the chosen printer does not give me an option that says "4 x 6 borderless" when choosing the paper size. Is there something I need to set differently in order to get borderless prints?

I don't believe that Samsung ever made a driver for this model that worked in intel. Unfortunately, I think your printer is just too old. You can read here

How Do I BORDERLESS PRINT on Epson RX500 in 10.4.7?

Hello,
When I set up my Epson RX500 All-In-One printer/scanner I was using 10.3 Panther.
The Print Setup Utility looked just like it does in the setup guide that comes with the unit.
I never used Borderless Printing but in the "Printer List" it showed Stylus Photo RX500 and Stylus Photo RX500(Sheet Feeder - Borderless).
Now a year later (after upgrading to 10.4.7) I want to do some borderless printing with 4x6 and 5x7 photo paper but the "Stylus Photo RX500(Sheet Feeder - Borderless)" listing is not there anymore.
Also the Printer Setup Utility has changed. The screens aren't like they were in 10.3 (where I select EPSON USB from a pull-down menu, etc).
I went to the Epson Website to download new drivers but they only have
TWAIN Driver and EPSON Scan Utility v2.65A for Macintosh OS X (v10.2.x - 10.3.x)
OR
Printer Driver v3.0aAs for Intel-based Macs with OS X (v10.4.4 or later). There isn't one for PowerPC 10.4.
I CAN print a supposed 4x6 borderless print using Page Setup and "4x6 Borderless" setting for Paper Size but it doesn't come out borderless -- it has borders. There is a 5x7 setting but it doesn't say borderless.
Any help with this problem? I really would like to see the "Sheet Feeder - Borderless" in my Printer List again and do some true bordeless printing!
Thanks!!
PowerMac FW800 (G4), iMac G4 800 SuperDrive Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Thank you so much that was a big help.
After you do that, though, you have to click on the Page Setup drop down menu and select Borderless Sheet Feeder instead of Standard from the list -- that's the part I wasn't doing. It defaults to "Standard", whatever that is, and doesn't make the Borderless Printing available if you don't change it.
After that, though, I couldn't get the border even when I wanted one (which I do sometimes) using the RX500 regular setting (NOT borderless) -- it's makes about a 1/10" border instead of a 1/2" one.
FWIW I found that if you then delete Borderless Sheet Feeder (that I tried so hard to get!) from the Printer List and re-start the computer you will then have true border printing again! Re-install Borderless driver to get true borderless again (ugh). I guess I'll have to do that because sometimes I want borderless and other times I don't.
Thanks!!

Lightroom 2.6 Problem Printing Borderless Prints on Epson R800

I have used Lightroom to print borderless prints (using the paper setting - borderless -sheet feeder) and all has worked fine until I downloaded the new Apple Epson driver. I found this new Apple driver did not work well as the colours were washed out. So, I went back to the current Epson driver for Snow Leopard (OSX 10.6.2) and I can print again. (The prints are now a bit dark but that can be addressed).
However, I now find I cannot print borderless prints (i.e. with no white edge) via Lightroom 2.6 using the current Epson driver and paper setting of borderless sheet feeder. The printer responds with "media not loaded correctly". When I go to Photoshop CS4 or iPhoto, I can print borderless prints. So, something is going on in Lightroom.
Any suggestions? Except of course to print borderless prints from Photoshop.

Sam,
I am still working on a similar problem with one of my Epson printers. The newer Epson R280 (may be R290 outside the US) works just fine with borderless. The older SP 2200 does not. I have been in communication with Epson, but not yet resolved. For most printers the newest software referenced for Leopard is with EasyPrint, but with this old 2200 the driver referenced is still not nearly as recently released as the EasyPrint frame work. The reply I got back from Epson was not satisfactory because it ignored the fact I am connected to my 2200 via Firewire and not USB, and all reference in the reply was to USB connection. Despite doubting the usefulness of the reply, I will have to move my 2200 much closer to the computer to try connecting with USB, and I simply have not tried it, since I doubt it will help.
My issues with borderless on the SP 2200 are also present when printing borderless from Photoshop CS3 and from Pages. Thus it seems more a problem with Leopard than with Aperture.
Sorry to not be more helpful or hopeful, but I think drivers for some printers are not fully tuned to printing in Leopard.

Cannot make borderless prints on Epson

I am having real difficulty printing borderless prints from my iMac to my Epson Stylus Photo R390 (not sure if this model was released in the USA).
My main problem is that two edges have approx. 3mm of white space.
This is despite multiple attempts at calibrating the paper alignment from within Aperture's print settings.
I have installed the latest Drivers from Epson website.
I am using Aperture 2.1.
Can anyone help me - I am sick of wasting paper and ink?

Illustrator CS3 crashing when print on epson 2100

I 'm newer to using illustrator CS3, actually when i print fron illustrator CS3 on Epson 2100 Inkjet it's crashing, application closed. I've trashed the .plist... i have created a new system account and the problem is resolved but after 4/5 press it is returned. Indesign CS3 and photoshop CS3 are ok. Mac OS X 10.5.4. MacPro.

I am not all that great with computers so I apologize in advance for my ignorance! The first thread you linked seems like would help but I don't even know how to get to where it's telling me to go...
"I had the same problem but this worked for me..
remove adobe PDF PPD from the following folders:
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/en.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_CN.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Ja.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/ko.lproj,
OS/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_TW.lproj,
then re start Illustrator and try printing again"
I got to the OS/Library/printers but then after that... I just see all my printers... nothing that says PPD or contents. This may be such a stupid question for you guys but again I am not great with this kind of stuff so thank in advance for any help! I am already so aggravated with lion, I am considering going back... ughh!

Cant get it to replace or print to new line, please help

2 problems. The instructions are to first replace each 's' with '$' and then print each word to a new line. Here is an example:
Give me a phrase: Viva Las Vegas, babies!
Viva
La$
Vega$,
babie$.
Here is my code that is not working:
import java.util.*;
public class StringEdit {
     private static Scanner input ;
     private static String makeMoney[] ;
     public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception {
          System.out.print ("Give me a phrase: ") ;
          input = new Scanner (System.in) ;
          makeMoney = input.nextLine().split(" ") ;
          //makeMoney = makeMoney.replace("s", "$") ;
          int i = 0;
          while (i < makeMoney.length) ;{
          if (makeMoney.contains("s")){
               System.out.println("Show me here");
               makeMoney[i].replace("s", "$");
          if (makeMoney[i].contains("S")){
               System.out.println("Show 2");
               makeMoney[i].replace("S", "$");
          System.out.print(makeMoney[i].toString());
          i++ ;
Please help me figure out what is wrong

your first post was the one which you really wanted to use for the assignment in order to get the output you desire. anyways like jverd said that you cannot update string because they are immutable. you can always do this
makeMoney[i] = makeMoney.replace(blah blah).
here is your program
import java.util.*;
public class StringEdit {
     private static Scanner input ;
     private static String makeMoney[] ;
     public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception {
          System.out.print ("Give me a phrase: ") ;
          input = new Scanner (System.in) ;
          makeMoney = input.nextLine().split(" ") ;
          //makeMoney = makeMoney.replace("s", "$") ;
          int i = 0;
          while (i < makeMoney.length) {
          if (makeMoney.contains("s")){
               System.out.println("");
          makeMoney[i] =     makeMoney[i].replace("s", "$");
          if (makeMoney[i].contains("S")){
               System.out.println("");
          makeMoney[i] =      makeMoney[i].replace("S", "$");
          System.out.print(makeMoney[i].toString());
          i++ ;
output

Stuck seriously in the blue print phase of project--- please help

I am Prabhas, sap XI associate consultant in capgemini. I am stuck in the design phase of my project.I am writing this mail to you for helping me in designing the blue print of my scenario. My scenario is like this.
XI will receive a flat file containing stock data and it processes by transforming the structure and then dump the data to R3 system. The output of XI actually invokes some function modules in the target R3 system which in turm executes some BAPIs for committing some transactions.I am clear with the flow and how to realize the process.But the problem is with the function module written to execute some transactions with the help of BAPI.Suppose for some reason one of the transaction commit is failed and the RFC adapter goes in error.Now the question is after correcting the error if we restart the msg in RFC adapter will it start executing the transaction in which it faced the error or the whole RFC will be executed again.
I hope the problem is clear to you.Please help in getting over this. Thank you.
Regards,
Prabhas

Prabhas,
A few quick questions~
1. How are you maing the RFC call? is it a single RFC call that will contain all the records from the file or are you going to make one RFC call for each record in the file?
The user of Recordsets permessage depends on this factor.
If you are going to make a single RFC call, then you cannot use Recordsets per message if there is some dependency in the records.
><i>You mean to ay that even some of the transactions which were committed before the error, we can undo them in RFC. If it is so i am clear with the point.</i>
Well if all records are going to be pushed into a single RFC call, then yes, your RFC code should be such that if there is some error whileprcoessing the call, it should be able to undo the same!
If it is the other option where you are going to make one rfc call per record, the issue will not arise, if there is some error, you can correct the same and restart the mesage from XI .

Bhavesh

Printing a TextArea. PLEASE HELP ME! :)

I'm trying to use this code for printing the content of a TextArea:
void Stampare(){
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
Book book = new Book();
PageFormat documentPageFormat = new PageFormat();
documentPageFormat.setOrientation(PageFormat.LANDSCAPE);
book.append(new Document(), documentPageFormat);
printJob.setPageable(book);
if (printJob.printDialog()) {
try {
printJob.print();
catch (Exception PrintException){
PrintException.printStackTrace();
public class Document implements Printable {
private final static int POINTS_PER_INCH = 72;
public int print (Graphics g, PageFormat pageFormat, int page) {
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
g2d.translate(pageFormat.getImageableX(), pageFormat.getImageableY());
g2d.setPaint(Color.black);
g2d.setStroke(new BasicStroke (4));
Rectangle2D.Double border = new Rectangle2D.Double (0, 0, pageFormat.getImageableWidth (), pageFormat.getImageableHeight ());
//g2d.draw(border);
String text = new String(areaStampa.getText());
Point2D.Double pen = new Point2D.Double(0.25 * POINTS_PER_INCH, 0.25 * POINTS_PER_INCH);
double width = 7.5 * POINTS_PER_INCH;
AttributedString paragraphText = new AttributedString(text);
paragraphText.addAttribute(TextAttribute.FONT, new Font("serif", Font.PLAIN, 12));
LineBreakMeasurer lineBreaker = new LineBreakMeasurer(paragraphText.getIterator(), new FontRenderContext(null, true, true));
TextLayout layout;
while ((layout = lineBreaker.nextLayout((float) width)) != null){
pen.y += layout.getAscent();
layout.draw(g2d, (float) pen.x, (float) pen.y);
pen.y += layout.getDescent() + layout.getLeading();
return (PAGE_EXISTS);
Obviuosly, it doesn't work as I would like it to do!
First of all, It doesn't print the lines as they are in the TextArea. I mean, the carriage returns are not the one that are in the TextArea.
Secondly, If there's a lot of text, It does exactly nothing! My purpose is to print pages as if they were a Word document, while here it seems that I cannot print more than a page.
Please, please, please, help me!!!! I'm becoming crazy with this problem!
Thanks a lot,
Giorgio

I really need somebody who could give me the correct version of this application. Have you ever developed an application that uses a TextArea (or a JTextArea, if it is possible to use that) exactly as it was a Word document? I mean, something that would let you print what is inside the TextArea as if it was inside a Word document, with more than one page, all the lines printed correctly and so on. If you have that, please, please, please!!! send me a copy. My e-mail address is [email protected]
I would really, really appreciate that!
Thanks,
Giorgio

Can't open a "Full Page" to print a letter..Please help!...

For some strange reason, when I open up AppleWorks (Word Processing) to simply print a letter, I get a "half a page". And in the past it was always a "Full Page"... I'm using AppleWorks 6.2.9
I've tried everything possible, but I still get the "half page" each and every time when I open Word Processing to write a letter.
Please help.......thanks.....

Without you detailing what you've tried, it's impossible to know what you consider everything possible. Usually a user's "everything possible" isn't everything.
When an application stops working as it should, it's likely due to corrupt preferences. You can follow the steps in this user tip or use the free reset function of Dale Gillard's Sidekick.

Borderless printing on epson RX600

Hi all, having trouble printing borderless in Aperture on my Epson RX600, if i export the image onto memory card then print on printer its borderless, but from Aperture ( and iPhoto come to that) it has a border, if i try and move the border slider beyond 0.32, nothing happens.
I have the latest drivers from epson installed and the icc profiles work just fine, not a disaster but wondered if anyone else has had a similar problem.
Cheers

iMac G5/Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Wow, quick response! I don't seem to have any borderless options in my dropdown so did go ahead and choose custom sizes. That seems to give me 2 less borders to worry about but I can't seem to change the size to fit the whole sheet in the preview view. I'm a bit of a novice at this (obviously). Any morehelp would be appreciated. I didnt use to have any problems getting A4 borderless prints from PS....do I have to go back to using that?
Cheers again, Lisa

Appletalk laserwriter won't print over airport wireless. please help.

i have an old apple personal laserwriter 320 which prints plug and play to my G5 (10.4.4) connecting ethernet (appletalk on) with asantetalk adapter. no problems at all.
i like to share this printer wirelessly by connecting it an airport express base station.
i cannot get my network of powerbook and G5 (all 10.4.4) to print to it, they cannot see it.
1. can it be used wirelessly with the airport express base station?
2. what about airport extreme base station?
3.i turned on appletalk in airport under network settings. how about under airport admin utilities?
i must be setting the network configurations wrong, or is it appletalk or the asantetalk ethernet adapter?
can someone please help me through this setup?

Well, I use an HP-6MP with an AsanteTalk hooked to an Airport Extreme Base Station and I use Tiger 10.4.4 and everything works fine. My wife's dual USB iBook, circa 2001, with an internal airport card, uses the HP printer with no problems. The same setup works with OS 9 too.
I also have an Airport Express hooked up to my livingroom stereo that I use with both iTunes and AirFoil. I've never tried using the Airport Express with the AsanteTalk, but I can't imagine that it wouldn't work since it works with the AEBS.
The startup routine is touchy, the printer has to be allowed to fully complete its warmup cycle before powering up the AsanteTalk. Try disconnecting the power to the AsanteTalk for about 10 seconds while everything else is hooked and powered up, then reconnect the power, the lights should flash on the AsanteTalk, then open the Printer Setup Utility, wait about 10 seconds and the printer should then appear, if it isn't there already. When we have power outages from say thunderstorms, I often have to recycle the AsanteTalk's power because when the power comes back on, it completes it startup cycle before the HP does and printer setting disappears.
It's not a matter of adding AppleTalk to the AEBS or Airport Express. There are no options for that. The settings are only in the computer network/airport settings. Both of your computers need to be configured to have AppleTalk active under the Airport network settings.
And as mentioned before, don't use the yellow ethernet cord.

Print not clear. Please Help

I have a HP F370 All-in-one Printer. I am trying to print a screenshot of my visual basic program. I am using printscreen key on my keyboard to take screen shot and then trimming it with the help of paint. The resulting screenshot is then copied to MS Word 2007 and printed using my printer with the following settings:
Paper Size : A4
Paper Type : Plain Paper
Print Quality : Best (600 dpi) with Real Life Digital Photography Disabled
Resizing Options : Actual Size
Color Options : Print In Grayscale with Black Print Cartridge Only.
The Problem is when I print it using the above setting without the window border, then I get a very sharp , crisp and clear print. But with EXACTLY SAME SETTINGS, with window border I get a Blurry print.
See this image:
I have zoomed the word 'Physics'. Notice in first pic it is sharp and in second one it is blurry. I want it just like in first pic.
I have tested and reprinted it many times but same problem persists. I am using Windows 7 , and A4 sheets for printing. Please help me.

Could be many things here. If the actual size with the windows border exceeds the margins on the paper, it could be changing the size to fit which reduces the quality of the image. That is just the first thought that came to mind. This document about print settings for better prints may offer some help:
